THE TOEPRO
The ToePro foot exercise platform has been designed to improve performance by strengthening muscles of the foot and leg in their lengthened positions. Compared to conventional exercises, exercising lengthened muscles produces nearly fourfold increases in strength.
Increasing toe and arch strength is important for injuries like plantar fasciitis, metatarsal stress fractures, and bunions, which are strongly correlated with toe weakness.
The ToePro Foot Exercise Device is also useful for the prevention of falls in the elderly: every 1% increase in force generated beneath the big toe decreases a senior's risk of falling by 7%.

Managing Limb Length Discrepancies
Dr. Tom Michaud's newest article, excerpted from his book Human Locomotion. Loaded with information on how to treat and manage limb length discrepancies.
NEW! The PERCUSSION PRO
Portable hand-held therapy tool that has an exclusive attachment designed by Dr. Michaud. The attachment has been created with a unique curved edge and large rounded shape that allows the user to target and massage critical areas, such as the arch of the foot, quadriceps muscle, posterior rotator cuff, and the medial head of the gastroc.
It's powerful motor oscillates at 50-60 cycles per second which supresses information from muscle spindles, allowing the muscles to relax more effectively.
Comes with a USB charger and instructions.

THE TOEPRO/HIP STRENGTH DYNAMOMETER
Pair this clever device with the ToePro to precisely monitor toe strength results. Place the card beneath the patients/athletes toes and pull slowly as they try to hold the card down. The dynamometer has a peak hold setting for a precise reading. The optional strap (sold separately) is for measuring hip strength. Read a brief article on the dynamometer. A new video with instructions on how to use the dynamometer is coming soon!
THE TWO-TO-ONE ANKLE ROCKBOARD
THE NEW TWO-TO-ONE ANKLE ROCKBOARD IS NOW AVAILABLE!
We've spent twelve months perfecting our new Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard. Redesigning, modifying and finally developing a rockboard with the perfect shape and density. Unlike most rockboards, the new Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard is made of a high-durometer urethane rubber that provides a specific amount of flex. This subtle flex increases user resistance, enhancing strength and proprioceptive gains.
Of course, the Two-to-One Rockboard still has the unique Two-to-One design developed by Dr. Michaud that allows your foot and ankle to move through its natural two to one ratio. We've taken the perfect rockboard design and made it even MORE perfect!

PEEL and STICK Posts and Balances
PEEL and STICK Varus Posts
The PEEL and STICK Forefoot and Rearfoot Varus Posts attach directly to the bottom of an insole and have been proven to improve alignment and alter motion in the foot, ankle, knee, and hip. Great for managing plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, and reducing valgus collapse of the knee.
PEEL and STICK Valgus Posts
Most custom and over-the-counter orthotics are designed for people with low arches who pronate excessively. Valgus posts are designed to treat and prevent injuries in people with high arches. These full length posts are placed directly beneath your insoles.
The PEEL and STICK Interdigital Neuroma Balance
Interdigital neuromas are common, poorly studied, and notoriously difficult to treat. By offloading the third and fourth metatarsal heads throughout propulsion, the PEEL and STICK Interdigital Neuroma Balance allows you to effectively treat interdigital neuromas, usually without the need for surgery and/or expensive orthotics.
The PEEL and STICK Sesamoid Balance
Sesamoid injuries are extremely common, especially in high-arched individuals. The new PEEL and STICK Sesamoid Balance is thicker than most sesamoid balances, and is made of a blend of urethane rubber, PPT, and synthetic suede designed to significantly reduce pressure beneath the first metatarsal head.
